STEEL-STOCK BACK. f
Application filed .Tune 22,
This invention relates more particularly to an improved type of a steel stock rack wherein a plurality ofknock-down rack sections are adapted to be independently assembled and positioned adjacent one another as needed, to form a continuous rack adapted to per it stock steel to be stored according to size in channel troughs forming part ot said sections.
It is an object of this invention to provide a stock rack adapted to be increased or decreased in size to regulate the capacity of said rack according to the amount of the stock on hand.
It is also an object ofthe invention to provide a steel stock rack wherein each section embraces a plurality of stock carrying channels supported by frame sections constructed of removably connected H-'frames Another object of the invention is the construction of a steel stock rack adapted to be increased or decreased in size to vary the iioor space occupied by the rack proportionately to the amount of the stock to be carried by the rack.
It is a further object of the invention to construct a steel stock rack adapted to be increased in size either vertically or horizontally as desired.
It is an important object of this invention to provide a stock rack of variable capacity for carrying stock steel rods or bars of various sizes in different channel troughs supported by knock-down uprights.
Other and further important objects of this invention will be apparent from the disclosures in the specification and the accompanying drawings.
The invention (in a preferred form) is illustrated in the drawings and hereinafter more fully described.
On the drawings:
Figure l is an end elevation of a steel stock rack embodying the principles of this invention.
Figure 2 is a top plan view thereof.
Figure 3 is a front lelevation oi the rack broken away at one end.
Figure 4l is a detail front elevation of one of the large H-frame units with a stock Y carrying channel seated therein.
Figure 5 is a section taken on line 5-45, ot Figure. 4.
Figure 6 is a section taken on line GMG, of Figure 4.
Figure 7 is a detail front elevation of one 1923. Serial No. 647,095.
of the small H-trame units having a stock carrying channel seated therein.
As shown on the drawings:
The rack is adapted for carryinr stock steel rods or bars assorted according to size in channels or troughs forming part ot' rack sections positioned adjacent each other in any desired number.
Each rack section comprisesy ak plurality of spaced uprights, supports'or standards each embracing a plurality of frame units removably secured by means ot bolts l, one above the other to any desired heiht. The frame units may be formed in diiferent heights as shown in Figures 4L and 7, and each embraces two spaced parallel channel arms 2, the integral flanges 3 and 4, of which are provided with openings 5, disposed on opposite sides ot an integral reinforcing web 6, which is in the middle of the channel arm and extends from flange to tlange thereof. The two channel arms 2, are integrally connected, to torni a one-piece H-frame unit, by means of a T-cross-sectioned cross-piece or supporting bar 7. Openings l0 are provided in the arm webs 6. The supporting bar 7, ot' each :trame unit connects the lower portions of the parallel side arms 2, to afford a U-shaped recess or pocket above said bar for removably receiving seated therein a channel or trough 8. The side flanges of each trough are of a height to extend upwardly to the upper arm flanges 1l, as shown in Figures fi and 7. The various channel troughs 8, extend through a plurality of aligned trame units which serve to support said troughs 8,y in position one above the other to form a single steel stock rack section.
Figure 1 shows an elevation of an end stock rack section7 the-end supports or uprights oit' which are removably secured together or braced by diagonal connecting or tie rods 9, which cross each other diagonally at an intermediate upright. As shown in Figure 2, the uprights of adjacent rack sections are odset and overlapped as to their channel arms 2 to permit closer association of the various sections making up the rack. The outer sides of the end sections are preterably the only frame section sides provided with crossed reinforcing connecting rods 9, the ends of which are bolted through openings 10, provided in the webs 6, of the trame As shown in Figure 2, the steel stock rack is composed of a plurality of adj acentl disposed independently constructed racl;7 sections, the upright supports of which are offset to overlap one another to. permit closer association oi' said sections, thereby minimizing the amount of floor space occupiedrby the rack. The H-rame units may be constructed of dii'lerent heights as shown in Figures 4 and 7, to support stock carry ing channel troughs of different depths. The channel Vtroughs 8, are arranged to ree ceive and hold steel rods or bars assorted into different sizes. Each` rack section is adapted to be independently increased in height by adding` on additional H'rame units and seating channel troughs therein. The troughs vSi, may be removably Vsecured in place if desired.
Any number of rack sections of the same o1 different heights may be placed adjacent one another in aligned series with their channel arms 2 overlapping, as shown .in Figures 2 and 3 to provide a steel stock rack of any desired capacity. Vhen the stock carried by the rack has been materially reduced. the remaining stock may be storedV in a few sections to permit the .empty sections to he dismembered, and the parts stored away in knock-down form. The floor space formerly occupied by the emptied rack sections is thus reclaimed and may be used for other purposes, until the stock is again increased to such an extent that additional stock rack sections are required. Y
I am aware that numerous details of con struction may be Varied through a Wide range without departing from tie principles of this invention, and I ther ore do not purpose limiting the patent granted otherwise than necessitated by the prior art- I claim as my invention: Y -A stock rack comprising a plurality ot superimposed detachably connected selfsupporting sections, each section embracing a plurality of one-piece H-'fran'ie units having side channel members, said units lbeing disposed in a plurality of aligned series with their channel members overlapping,
and stock troughs removably seated in said aligned units tor receiving stock steel.
In testimony Whereof'I have subscribed my name.
